Our mission, vision and values

Our vision is a world without barriers for every deaf child

Our mission is to remove the barriers to the achievement of deaf children throughout the world. We do this by:

• Families to achieve the best outcomes for their deaf child

• Deaf children and young people to achieve their true potential

• World leading family centred services supporting deaf children and their parents

• New approaches to the development of effective communication within the family and other environments

• Social attitudes which prevent deaf children from reaching their true potential

• Governments to act where necessary

We believe that:

• Every deaf child has the right to the same opportunities as a hearing child

• Every deaf child has the right to be included and valued by society

• Families have the right to make informed choices on behalf of their deaf child and for those choices to be implemented

• Families have the right to clear and balanced information and support, delivered in a way that is accessible to them
